This humorous anthology is, in the words of author Kevin Annett, "A lighter side of the crime scene called Canada". An unconventional dictionary about the meaning of words to Anglophone Canadians, it names historical unmentionables and pulls back the lid on Canadians' duplicitous self-image.
"Do not read this book! That's an order!"
- Crime Minister Justin ("The Turdo") Trudeau
"Oh, if only Mummy was here to help me with my crown!"
- "King" Charlie the Brainless
For a longer introductory read, see this E book version:
"James Joyce said that his Irish people could not be free until they had cleansed their psyches of the mental stranglehold of colonialism. Are we any less in need of such a cathartic purification, languishing as we do in the shadows of Washington and Beijing? It all starts with understanding and reclaiming ourselves by owning our words, and toppling the enthroned lies with a loud, irreverent YAWP!" - Kevin Annett, from the introductionThis is Kevin Annett's twenty-third book. He is a self-described "recovering Canadian" and a founding member of the sovereign Republic of Kanata. See www.republicofkanata.org and www.murderbydecree.com.
